Cosmetic surgeons often perform procedures in their own office/medical suites. I don't think repairing your child's mitral valve is a great idea, but I don't have a problem with cosmetic procedures. There's a huge difference.

Unless it's a life or death situation I would say no. There's a reason why you aren't suppose to do it now. If it's something that can be done in the office (like Botox or setting a broken bone that probably would be cool. That's a slippery slope but I can see the pros and cons.

If it's an outpatient minor surgery I don't see a problem with it. If it's something serious like a heart surgery, brain surgery, ect.. then no. That should be done by someone who's not emotionally invested in the patient. They wouldn't be able to concentrate enough to get the job done right and safely.

As long as you and your SO are in good shape emotionally I don't see anything wrong with them doing plastic surgery. If you're fighting stay the hell away because revenge is a bitch and that surgery could get botched on "accident".

I was always fairly certain that this was always 100% illegal due to common ethics codes, the Hypocratic Oath and malpractice insurance regulations.

I mean, imagine how emotional it must be to treat a family member medically. That added pressure alone would make things increasingly more dangerous for the patient and put the practitioner at an increased risk for making errors. Then add to that increased possibility that something DOES goes wrong what would happen in the aftermath: I mean, a wife/husband can't exactly sue her doctor spouse for malpractice while they are still married. And think of the possibilities for insurance scams that could come out of that very circumstance!

But then, maybe the rules are different for elective surgery versus say, oncology. But idk; I'd sincerely hope this would be a common major "no no" across the board.

LolWasn't there a lb about actress busted at airport with syringes / Botox ?? What about those women that have gone to people's homes of suppoed Drs and later find TBEY were filled with some kind of tire filler. Lol. ( who goes there anyway?)

My initial reaction is is has to be unethical or a potential minefield of the family relations kind but what if your relative is one of the best in a particular field of medicine and both parties are otherwise OK with it?

What if the relative only does the surgery itself but the pre op and post op has to be another doctor involved and really if the relative is a surgeon other people are doing the pre op and post op.
